Former UMass goaltender Jon Quick solid in preseason

Former UMass goaltender Jonathan Quick appears ready for another strong season for the Los Angeles Kings.

Quick, who won 39 games and posted a 2.54 goals against average for LA last season, is 2-1 in three exhibition games with a 2.33 goals against average. His save percentage is 89.9

However, some LA observers are wondering if this week's two-year contract extension given to goaltender Jonathan Bernier, who will be the backup to start, might put some pressure on Quick to play well out of the gate to insure his No. 1 status.
